CBF is a member-supported organization that works to save the Chesapeake Bay in two key areas: environmental protection and restoration and environmental education.

Environmental Protection and Restoration conserves the Bay's natural resources by fighting for strong and effective laws and regulations, protects the Bay and its tributaries from pollution and other harmful activities, and restores the Bay"s vital natural systems like oyster reefs, forests, and wetlands through innovative projects.

We believe that, in the words of Senegalese conservationist Baba Dioum, "In the end, we will conserve only what we love, we will love only what we understand, and we will understand only what we are taught."

Environmental Education inspires students and adults to become life-long stewards of the Chesapeake Bay. Our education program is perhaps the largest, regional field-based environmental education program in the world. In 2002, more than 40,000 students took part in CBF's comprehensive education activities.
